Route 117 eastbound lane closed for water work

The Town of Lancaster's Department of Public Works announced Oct. 26 that the eastbound lane of Route 117 will be closed this week while water service construction continues.

According to the department, the closure is tied to ongoing water service work on the roadway, and motorists traveling on Route 117 should expect delays while crews continue the project.

The announcement did not specify an exact end date for the lane closure or provide further detail about the scope of the water service construction.

Lane closures tied to utility work like this one typically lead to temporary traffic delays until the construction is finished, so drivers passing through the area on Route 117 should plan for slower travel this week.
